All I can say is WOW! - I am a 60 yr. old novice who has kind of stumbled through learning about computer [ing] since being introduced to them 5 years ago,and while poking around Google looking for some answers, I "stumbled" upon YOU! - I am actually trying to figure out how to send duplicate pictures (from "My Pictures") to a file folder I have named 'Pats Photo Lab' so I can alter & play with them without losing the original, then 'send' them via e-mail to whomever. - I am SO glad I found this site, and will 'stick' this in 'My Favorites' so I can make return visits. - Thank you for being here for folks like me. - Sincerely, Pat

Great advice - I couldn't live without folders to organize my stuff. Unfortunately, I have iTunes, which somehow creates duplicates of very large mp4 files in unexpected places.

Can you advise me of a site where I can learn how to write simple Excel 2003 VBA procedures that will locate files by size and type (i.e. mp4) and move them into folders I create to help me be sure I've located all the dups. I also want to use the code to programmatically move the ones I suspect I can delete into a location where I can study and compare them. I have the storage space on my external hard drive to do whatever I want to to get them organized.

Thanks for your help.

I downloaded Microsoft Flight Simulater 2004 AutogenSDK. It is not in Programs and not in Add/Remove. How can I find it?
